Me and sis

There is allegedly a jazz afternoon at the Mackay Marina on a Sunday afternoon which I had always wanted to go to. We checked into our hotel at the marina, with beautiful rooms overlooking the sea, and then had wine and tapas on the edge of the marina. The food was superb, we all ordered something we liked and then shared it all.
Unfortunately, the jazz appeared to have been replaced on this instance by a duo of women in swimming costumes and hats doing acrobatic stunts – not quite the same appeal, but it was lovely to sit there in the sun watching the world go by.
After a stroll along the marina we went to the hotel swimming pool for an hour or so and then retired to our rooms to get ready for our evening meal. We ate at the hotel and had a lovely meal – I had kangaroo steak (which is actually very nice, like a really tender beef steak)!!

Andy missed out on the meal as he was travelling back from his football tournament in Ayr. His team, the Mackay Wanderers, got beaten in the final on penalties so he was disappointed about that, but he got man of the tournament for their team which came with a $50 note, so that eased the pain slightly!
